I think the culture issue needs to be addressed. Corporations by their 
very nature are adverse to the OpenSource culture, not the concept. A 
corporation is generally a suit culture. I think that the OpenSource 
movement will continue to grow and prosper, but I don't see it replacing 
Microsoft. Microsoft may very well falter and may be supplanted by 
another company. Bill Gates and his family will not end up in the poor 
house just as John D. Rockefella's family was able to maintain their 
wealth.
